A complex and deliciously intense curry from Goa...

Goa, a small coastal state in the west of India, was until relatively recently still ruled by the Portuguese, who are responsible for introducing chillies to India. India is now the largest consumer of chillies, and the Goans have a particular fondness for the spicy fruit. Xacutti (pronounced sha-koo-tee) is both hot and intense with layers of flavour coming from whole, ground and toasted spices. Historically it was eaten to rid the paddy field workers of colds during the wet monsoon season, as the spices were believed to have medicinal properties. We're serving it here with garlic and coriander rice, a simple root veg sabzi, crispy and moreish potato pakora and a sweet mango chutney.
